CHARGING WITH 12V DC
Your jumpstarter can be recharged from a 12V DC socket. A single-ended cigarette
lighter plug and lead is included for recharging while driving.
1. Connect the 12V charging lead to your vehicle's cigarette lighter socket and to the
jumpstarter’s charging socket.
2. Start the car. The alternator on the car will charge both the jumpstarter and the car
battery at the same time. Once the car is stopped the jumpstarter will cease charging.
Note:
1. When charging with 12V DC the unit will only achieve around 90% charge capacity,
so you can not over charge the jumpstarter. This is because the power from the DC
socket does not achieve a high enough voltage to fully recharge the jumpstarter.
To fully recharge the jumpstarter use the AC charger wherever possible.
2. It is also worth noting that appliances can be run from the jumpstarter whilst DC
charging, for example a fridge or running a light. This is different from the instructions
for AC charging.
